Battlefield 2142 Demo

EA has released the promised "Battlefield 2142" multiplayer demo, giving players a chance to try out the upcoming FPS war simulation sequel. The demo features the Sidi Power planet map (max 48 players), offers two armies, and two gameplay modes: titan and conquest.

"The year is 2142, and the dawn of a new Ice age has thrown the world into a panic. The math is simple and brutal: The soil not covered by ice can only feed a fraction of the Earth's population. Some will live, most will die. In Battlefield 2142, players will choose to fight for one of two military superpowers in an epic battle for survival, the European Union or the newly formed Pan Asian Coalition. Armed with a devastating arsenal of hi-tech assault rifles, cloaking devices and sentry guns, players will also do battle using some of the most imposing vehicles known to man. Massive battle Mechs wage fierce combat on the ground, while futuristic aircraft rule the skies. When facing one of these new behemoths, players will need to use their wits and an arsenal of new countermeasures like EMP grenades to level the playing field."

The 1.08GB demo can be downloaded from 3dgamers, FileCloud, FileNuts, FileShack, Gamer's Hell, GWN.com, Strategy Informer, VGPro, or Worthplaying.
